Bear Wants More

AUTHOR: Karma Wilson
ILLUSTRATOR: Jane Chapman

From the Publisher:

When springtime comes,
in his warm winter den
a bear wakes up
very hungry and thin!…”

Bear finds some roots to eat, but that’s not enough. He wants more! With his friends’ help, he finds some berries, clover, and fish to eat, but that’s not enough. Bear wants more!
How Bear’s friends help him to finally satisfy his HUGE hunger in a most surprising way will enchant young readers. Karma Wilson’s rhythmic text and Jane Chapman’s vibrant illustrations make Bear Wants More a perfect springtime read-aloud.

Leah’s Thoughts:

Bear’s post-hibernation hunger is both hilarious and heartwarming. I love how his woodland friends rally to help him, leading to a delightful surprise that celebrates friendship and the joys of spring. The rhythmic text and charming illustrations make this a favorite read-aloud in our home.
